Each campaign in detail

  1. Rappel : feux stop (modèles produits jusqu'en février 2006)

    Manufacturer recall

    Le contacteur de pédale peut ne plus allumer les feux stop, sa graisse supportant mal l'échauffement. Caradisiac et CarVerif mentionnent un rappel de mai 2007 portant sur 20 145 exemplaires produits jusqu'en février 2006. Défaut de sécurité.

    Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).
